Adopcion Gay

ABSTRACT

In these times, families come in all kinds of shape and size. Some of them are traditional: a mom, a dad, a pet and 2.5 children. Other families are completed in a alternative sense of the word: a father in a home, a mother and a father in separate homes, or children being raised by grandparents, uncles or aunts. Increasingly, some families have mothers and fathers of the same sex, adding another new dimension to the idea of the family unit.

The gay adoption is also referred to as the adoption of parents of the same sex. This allows couples of the same gender be legally recognized as parents of a minor.

While there are traditional arguments against the adoption gay, there are also pros of the same.
